Template generator

Municipality of Steenwijkerland employees can manage templates in the software. These templates are suitable for digital or physical mail to residents and entrepreneurs, as well as for internal use. From 1 September 2024, the software offers an AI Assistant to improve texts.

Goal and impact

The algorithm in the software was developed to improve template management and uniformity. It ensures that municipal documents-such as letters, reports and forms-comply with house style and legal requirements. Employees always have access to the most up-to-date templates through the software, which reduces errors and increases productivity. The AI Assistant supports this process with prompts that help write and edit texts according to Steenwijkerland's house style.

Residents and business owners notice this indirectly because they receive consistent, professional documents. This increases the quality of service and strengthens the municipality's recognisability and reliability.

The algorithm automatically checks templates against predefined house style rules. Documents that comply are approved immediately; deviations are corrected manually.

Considerations

The software speeds up the drafting of documents, reduces errors and ensures a uniform house style, strengthening the municipality's recognisability and reliability. At the same time, it requires additional control in case of discrepancies and possibly additional training for employees to use the system effectively.

Human intervention

The algorithm in the software supports employees in drafting documents by automatically testing templates against established guidelines. Approved templates are immediately usable. In case of deviations, subject specialists assess the content, after which quality staff adjust the templates and give them final approval. They also manage the AI prompts in the AI Assistant, so that automatically generated texts always comply with Steenwijkerland's house style. Only employees determine whether a template complies; the algorithm supports, but does not decide.

  • The algorithm underlines personal data in documents. An employee has to look at all pages and check whether the document is properly anonymised. Then the software removes all highlighted information and blacklists it. After that, the documents can be published, for example under the Open Government Act (WOO).
